Defence Against the Dark Arts Professor - Quirrell

When Quirrell opened his eyes, he was startled by an old face that was close at hand, and he got up hastily, but the result was that he grinned in pain and lay back down again.

"Lord!" The old man smiled and left, and Lucius sat by the bed.Quirrell held his hand, and while feeling a little relieved, he finally had the time to observe their current environment and the strange old man.

This place is just a standard stone house, even more cellar than the Snake King's cellar, cold, dark and damp.On the wall opposite him, there is a portrait. In the portrait, a platinum-haired man dressed as an English aristocrat in the 34th century was looking down at him curiously. When he found that Quirrell was also looking at him, the man replied. He gave him a standard Malfoy elegant and sly smile.Without asking, Quirrell knew that this person must be Lucius' elder.Besides the picture frame, the only piece of furniture in this stone house, besides the bed that Qi Luo is lying on now, is... a coffin, made of crystal, a man who is exactly like the one in the portrait sleeping peacefully with.The old man who frightened Quirrell was standing beside the crystal coffin. He was wearing a velvet blood-red robe, old but tall, and Quirrell could feel a bloody and dangerous smell from him.

"I heard that you are some kind of Dark Lord in the wizarding world?" The old man's eyes were still looking at the crystal coffin. His accent was very strange, like the accent of Romania, but not quite like it.

"Yes." Quirrell nodded honestly. Taking Dumbledore as an example, he didn't dare to underestimate any old man in the magic world.

"Huh!" With a gust of wind, Quirrell squinted his eyes subconsciously, and as a result... the old man's withered hand had already pinched him around his neck.

"It's really useless." The old man who frightened His Majesty the Dark Lord twice clapped his hands, "The current wizards are so useless that a guy like you can call himself a devil?"

"Obviously, yes."

Quirrell's straightforward "admitting mistakes" surprised the old man, and he finally stopped looking at Quirrell with a stinky face: "At least you are not so boring, and you are a good man who is only a little worse than me , I hope you can... cherish it." Quirrell was sure that what the old man wanted to say was definitely not "cherishing", but at least at this stage he didn't have time to ask any more, because the old man issued an order to evict, "Leave, rest Time is enough, let's go!"

Quirrell got off the bed helplessly, turned his head inadvertently, and the sheet slipped off the "bed", revealing the true appearance of the bed, which was also a coffin, but made of marble...

"he is?"

"Six hundred years ago, the partner of one of my ancestors was a blood prince. After my ancestor died, the prince did not find his love again, but entered here together."

Quirrell felt his chest tighten, and the original sense of creepy fear disappeared instantly, but at the same time, Quirrell felt a little strange: "Lucius, I remember that your father and your grandfather were not too old when they died. "Lucius' grandfather died of illness in his early fifties, which can only be considered middle-aged for wizards, and Lucius' father died of dragon pox in his early forties. Other Malfoy family members Quirrell didn't check it in detail, but looking at the ancestor of Malfoy 600 years ago, he was definitely not very old.

"Go on, and you will know all things mylord."

Although Lucius did not tell Quirrell about the longevity of the Malfoy family, he did tell who made these trials—the ancestors who were still "living" for generations, in fact, in the two worlds of Muggles. Marriages between wizards and magical creatures were common before the Great War.However, it was only limited to blood races and banshees, magical creatures that were close to wizards in appearance and had a powerful ethnic group at that time.But this is not the case for every generation before that, but on average every four or five generations of Malfoy has a partner with a foreign race, of course, both men and women.Because of the nature of the race, magical creatures are much more specific than wizards, so there are many cases where the widows of the Malfoy family remarried here, but the magical creatures stayed here.

And these ancestors who stayed here can be said to be the last strength of the Malfoy family.Unless something special happens, these ancestors cannot be disturbed, and unless they face the life and death of the Malfoy family, these ancestors will not leave here.

"Practically every pure-blood family has a sanctuary like this," Lucius explained as he moved on.

"Then why are so many families dying?"

"On the one hand, it is possible that the way to enter the secret realm has been lost. Like the Black family, Aunt Black originally stayed there to tell Sirius the secret of the Black family, but Sirius disappointed her so much, and with Sirius's With that kind of cognition, after he knew the secret place of Black’s house, he would probably lead the Order of the Phoenix to exterminate black magic creatures. So, instead of that, it’s better to let the ancestors live in peace. In addition, not everyone Families are like our Malfoy family."

Lucius raised his chin proudly, and Quirrell understood after thinking about it. The Malfoy family's appearance is famous all over Europe, and now the magic world in America is added. The powerful and excellent genetics of the Platinum family are amazing and envy.

"And there will always be... offspring like the Weasleys, but that's a family matter and we won't interfere."

Lucius frowned and stopped talking, and Quirrell didn't ask any more.

As the passage continues to move forward, various tests continue. Those who use their hands are fighting against dark creatures such as ghosts, and those who use their brains are playing a game of wizard chess or solving a riddle.In comparison, it is of course much simpler to use the brain. After all, the time these ancestors spent underground is calculated in centuries, and what they know are old puzzles from centuries ago. Quirrell is still able to handle it with ease.But it is more dangerous to do it, but Lucius is not a weak guy who can only rely on Quirrell to protect him. He is strong enough to protect the back of the Dark Lord even if there is an egg in his belly... After this incident, he would be severely criticized by the terrified Dark Lord.Moreover, it can be felt that the ancestors who mastered the test layer by layer obviously let the water go collectively!

In order to save time during research, Quirrell made some nutritional potions instead of food, because the existence of these potions kept him and Lucius from starving.And those ancestors were not too cruel. At night, some people would let their doors be displayed in the passage, at least so that they could have a warm place to rest.

Based on their own biological species, Quirrell and Lucius walked through this seemingly endless passage for three days, and finally saw the end of the road, where there was a door waiting for them to open.

Of course, Quirrell happily walked over and opened the door, but the strange thing is, the other side of the door is not the room of an ancestor with rich ethnic characteristics, but Lucius' bedroom?For some reason, Quirrell had another bad feeling, so he looked at the familiar room and didn't step in for a long time.

"Lord?" If it was when Quirrell just returned, Lucius must think that Quirrell's silence now is because he was waiting for his subordinates to go in and explore the way first.But after getting along for such a long time, especially these three days... No matter how heartless Lucius was, he knew that Quirrell couldn't have done that to him, so he just asked strangely and didn't do anything. any proposal.

"Lucius, stay away, I feel something is wrong here."

"Yes, be careful."

"I know, I'm still waiting to see the birth of the baby." Quirrell smiled, and stepped into "Lucius' bedroom" with a look of wariness.

"Bang!" Lucius, who had been paying attention to Quirrell from behind, watched helplessly. The moment Quirrell walked into the room, the three-dimensional room was like a canvas being rubbed by an invisible hand, and it rolled into a ball in an instant. , revealing the real space behind the canvas.But Lucius didn't have time to see where the room was, because Quirrell also lost consciousness at the same time, and he hurried over and hugged him in his arms.

"This is the final test." The ethereal voice sounded, and what Lucius saw was a seductive woman with long cyan hair and two pairs of dragon horns on her head. Scales replaced cloth to wrap her charmingly. body, "he will make choices in the world of consciousness, what he chooses there, he will gain something, and what he gives up, he will lose something. So, this Lord Dark Lord, does he choose to become the master of the world, or How about choosing only you, Lucius Malfoy?"

"Lucius!" As soon as the woman finished speaking, the unconscious Quirrell bounced up like a corpse, hugging Lucius' neck tightly.Lucius, who was extremely nervous just now, was taken aback, and this domineering and arrogant woman almost twisted her waist...

"You, you, you woke up? And you woke up after you chose him?"

Quirrell obviously hasn't distinguished the illusion from the reality just now, and he keeps shaking his still dizzy head: "I had an inexplicable and weird nightmare, and I dreamed that you were holding Draco and holding a baby. Being homeless and displaced in the Muggle world, and being bullied by scoundrels, it scared me to death." Quirrell still had goosebumps standing in rows, and what scared him was not the situation of Malfoy and his son in his dream, but this The dream itself, it's hard to believe that platinum nobles are actually wearing tattered clothes... It's too scary!

"Hey! Human! Don't you only see the choice on one side, but not the other?"

"Who are you?" Quirrell patted away the strange female's hand holding his neck, and stood up while protecting Lucius behind him.

"I am the one who handles the final test level. If you were negligent and didn't see the other side, I can let you choose again now!"

"The other side?" Quirrell showed a contemptuous expression, "So it wasn't a dream, but a test? What a terrible test."

"What?! You actually said bad?"

"Nonsense." A group of people shouted "Long live the Dark Lord!" Walking in front of him with his right arm held high, Quirrell looked like an organization in World War II, if Lucius' situation in the "dream" made his hair stand on end , then this dream that I am the only one in the sky will directly make him embarrassing and shy away. Being a psychotic dictator is not his hobby. The so-called final test?"

"Are you despising me?" A woman of an unknown race pricked her hair.

"..." Quirrell remained silent. Seeing so many perverted ancestors, it's better not to provoke the woman who is guarding the last door.

"Forget it, I lost, although I don't know how you little guy came out. But I did lose." Just when Quirrell suspected that the other party was becoming angry and wanted to drag Lucius to escape, She said, "From now on, the Malfoy family is free. And this world is so lonely, and I can finally go back to my companions." The magic words that Quirrell and Lucius also did not know The chains floated in the air, and with her movements, they shattered into light particles bit by bit, and finally disappeared into the air...

"However, before I leave, that Malfoy family, tell me, how did you find a descendant of a red dragon? You know, I have tampered with people, even if they only have a little red dragon blood on their bodies, in When I see you Malfoys, I will also feel disgusted in my soul, and it is hard to imagine that you can still love each other."

"He never looked for it. I sent it to my door myself." Quirrell moved in his heart. If it was the original Quirrell, he might feel disgusted when facing Lucius, but he is a Western man now. Baby, but... "I am a dragon? I always thought that what I awakened was the blood of a demon."

The other party was obviously irritated, and spewed a flame towards Quirrell, but it didn't hurt Quirrell, but sprayed him with black ash.Then the other party calmed down a lot, and even began to tell Quirrell and Lucius the story of a long time ago.

At that time, it was still the age of magic. The description of the age of magic in the history of wizards is only "the combination of magical creatures and the best ancient creatures, and the ancestors of wizards were born." A cruel world.Because human beings in an absolutely weak position have only two identities—slave or food.The first generation of Malfoy is certainly no exception. He and many other young men and women became tributes to the Lord of the Red Dragon at the age of 16-the dragons at that time were not the big reptiles raised by wizards today, with powerful The magic dragon clan was one of the overlords in the world at that time.

"That cunning little fellow! A slave stole Leos' heart!"

"Leos? Your...husband?"

"My son, shut up! Keep listening to me!"

It turned out that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were at odds~

In fact, there were many similar things at that time. If slaves wanted to get rid of their status as slaves, the only way was to become the master's lover.However, Malfoy's first-generation ancestors were obviously among the very few best and intelligent humans. He not only aroused the short-term interest of the master, but also won the eternal love of the master, and there was a crystallization of love between the two of them.As a result, the mother-in-law was unwilling after hearing about this incident. In fact, the mother-child relationship of the Dragon Clan is not very close.The reason why the mother-in-law objected to this marriage was just because Leos' actions made her lose face before her dragon companions.

So, while her son was away, she killed the "lowly slave who deceived his son". Before killing the "little bastard", the red dragon rushed back.Desperate to live, the red dragon struggled with his mother but failed to take back his son. In desperation, he sealed the mother with his own life, making her have to protect her offspring from growing up.

But at that time, the red dragon made the contract hastily before dying. Of course, the mother-in-law was extremely unhappy about this kind of forced winning, and later found a loophole in the seal through her own strength.As a result, each generation of the Malfoy family can only have one offspring, and they will never be able to awaken the powerful blood of magical creatures. Because of the heavy seal, the life span of most members of the Malfoy family will not be too long, and most of them will be similar to the first generation in appearance Malfoy.The only way to break this contract that is both protection and curse is to have a red dragon fall in love with Malfoy again, conceive a crystal, and get the affirmation of the "mother-in-law".

"Your blood is very thin, so thin that it can only maintain this ugly appearance. It is impossible even to change the shape of a dragon, and your strength and speed are seriously insufficient, but it is indeed a red dragon. Are you sure he didn't drink that for you? What's the matter? By the way, the love potion!"

"Ask, how do the parents of the Dragon Clan take care of their offspring?" After thinking for a long time, Quirrell came up with the right words.

"The practice of the dragon clan is that the female dragon lays eggs, the male dragon hatches the eggs, and the baby dragons are raised by the female dragon."

Quirrell hesitated for a moment, because the scene of himself lying on the egg wrapped in a sheet appeared in his mind: "How to hatch?"

"Just don't let the egg leave your hand, the magic power will be transmitted to the dragon through touch."

"Thank you." Nodding, Quirrell turned around and took Lucius away, which meant that they had gone through all kinds of hardships just for this sentence.

The mother-in-law yelled several times, but she didn't see Quirrell turning back. She felt angry, but also helpless, and a little bit painful. Although she hated the human slave and the child who sealed her at the beginning, but after so many years, Looking at the "boys" who grow up and die one by one, even the ruthless dragon clan has feelings.It's just that she was afraid that the child would also use loopholes to change the contract when she grew up, so those loopholes were filled after she changed the contract, and she couldn't change it even if she wanted to.

In the long years, except for the first few hundred years full of hatred, she actually spent the other [-]% of the time in remorse.That's why, the final test she gave was such an easy test to pass...

"Descendants of Leos, I hope you can continue in peace from generation to generation..." Offering his last blessing, the oldest ancestor who lived in the secret environment of the Malfoy family took out a mirror from somewhere , and then jumped into the mirror.After she disappeared, the mirror turned into a speck of dust in the air.

"Our child has really become a little dragon, will Drake like his brother or sister?" Quirrell asked curiously and nervously.

"Draco will like it." Lucius smiled affirmatively. Drake, who loved dragons since he was a child, would probably be ecstatic, "But..."

"what?"

"Regarding Lord's life experience, I originally traced those families with devils in their blood, and now I have to re-investigate."

"It's okay." Quirrell kissed Lucius on the forehead, "That's just my past, the reason I want to know is just curiosity, you are my future, don't tire yourself." These nasty words , now Quirrell is more and more natural.

"Mr. Malfoy, Professor Quirrell, you are back? Merlin! What's wrong with you?"

Quirrell and Lucius, who had finally returned to Malfoy Manor, had just walked out of the study when they heard an energetic voice.Then they saw Harry the Savior Potter with a sunny smile who made the sound, and the one who was holding his arm was Severus Snape with a dark face.

By the way, counting the time they entered the secret realm, the savior has already come to visit.

"Hey, Querrey, Harry is cute. And let me tell you, he overwhelmed that greasy guy when he came yesterday." The snake girl Nagini also crawled over, saying something that made Quirrell If I almost screamed...
